WhyWhy Change Now?Change Now?

•• World is changingWorld is changing. We must change to be responsive to 21st

century threats & hazards.– Unprecedented growth in maritime trade and tourism – oversee 20,000 U.S. and foreign vessels, conducting over $800 billion in domestic annual trade.– Growth of LNG shipping, offshore oil and gas exploration, and increasing size and cargo capacity of vessels.– Emergent radical extremism, major natural disasters, pandemic disease, mass migration, marine safety mission, search and rescue, law enforcement responsibilities, Arctic activity related to climate change, and growth of global trade routes.

• Need operational structure that is moremore agileagile, flexibleflexible,, and responsiveresponsive.

– Strategies must drive decisions; not be reactions to external events.– Operational Command & Control structure must have one doctrine/single point of accountability; structure must reflect and support Coast Guard Sectors.– Interface w/DHS, DoD, Environment Protection Agency, industry, etc., must be unified/one voice.


WhyWhy Change Now? (contChange Now? (cont’’d)d)

• Business processes must benchmark against best practicesbest practices.– Networking and organizational capabilities have significantly advanced since current construct was developed; there are now more efficient means of aggregating human effort.– Current business practices and structure are not adequate for operational sustainability.

• Need support systems that achieve a consistent business modelconsistent business model.– Foster sustainability via standard, repeatable, and scaleable processes; enterprise-wide decision- making; and product-line management.– Acquisition management must address entire life-cycle management of assets.

• Lessons learnedLessons learned from internal/external studies, GAO & Congressional reports, highlight need for Modernization:

– Gilbert Studies– Integrated Operations Command Study/Sector Implementation– Project 126 mini-studies, Logistics Transformation, Acquisition Reform – Coast Guard Command & Control (C2) Study– 9/11 Commission, Hurricane Katrina After-Action Reports– DHS Goals/Priorities, National Strategy for Maritime Security.


Modernization Builds on Work Modernization Builds on Work ““Already In ProgressAlready In Progress””

• Acquisition Reform (1980’s-2002)*

• Logistics Transformation (1986, 2003)*

• Deepwater Logistics Support (2002-present )

• Financial Management (1986, 1989, 2003)*

• eCG: IT integration (1996, 2002-present)*

• Reserve Support (1995, 9/11-present)

• Scenario based strategy (1998-present)

• Adaptive Force Packaging (9/11-present)*

• Operations /Marine Safety Consolidation (1986-present), Activities (1996), Sectors (2004), HQ (2005)

* Department of Homeland Security functional integration


What is What is NOTNOT ChangingChanging

• Job 1: Mission ExecutionMission Execution- Coast Guard People/Sectors/Ships/Aircraft/Boats get the job done

• No missionNo mission is being eliminatedeliminated, including Marine Safety

• Our Guardian EthosGuardian Ethos

• This is not down sizingnot down sizing…this is organizational wellness- There is no “budget gun” to our head- Coast Guard is likely to continue to grow, but more modestly

than post-9/11 years.- We can shift resources to where we need them

This is not the latest self-help fad or leadership trend!
